People who wish to hunt for Bigfoot must choose what camera to employ for capturing evidence. Because Bigfoot creatures are typically considered to be nocturnal, a normal camera with flash is not a good idea. The flash unit itself will frighten every

living animal within 50 yards. The other issue with using a camera with flash in the dark is that you cannot see what you are photographing. So begins our quest to find a Bigfoot camera.

Bigfoot Camera: Video With InfraredMost Bigfoot researchers choose to use cam corder with night shot capabilities. This means that the video camera has the ability to switch over to “night vision” and often comes with a low-power Infrared (IR) light to illuminate the darkness a very short distance. The problem with these cameras are that they are becoming hard to find, especially the Sony brand models. The night vision capability has been removed in the latest models. Reportedly, there might be a few other models out there with night vision capability. If you can find a Sony camcorder with night shot, you will need a strong, battery-powered IR light to shine through the woods. The light will be invisible to the human eye but not to the camera. Drawback: IR only allows the camera to see in the Near Infrared spectrum.

Bigfoot Camera: Are We Able to See Bigfoot?We wanted to approach something else with the Bigfoot camera question. Some researchers believe that Bigfoot has remained elusive because the creature must be multidimensional. What does that mean? We suppose in theory that multidimensional suggests that Bigfoot might be able to move in and out of the visible spectrum – the human range of sight. If true, this would mean that the creatures may be harder to see than first conceived. Maybe, eyewitnesses of Sasquatch were very lucky to be able to see these animals with the naked eye.

The visible range refers to range of light between the Ultraviolet and Infrared regions on the electromagnetic spectrum. We are able to see within the wavelength range from 380 – 750 nanometers. What about the range above and below human eyesight? Could Bigfoot be appearing beyond our vision at times? If so, we would need a Bigfoot camera that could see what we see and beyond. This type of camera exists and is known as a “full spectrum camera.” The typical full spectrum camera does not have the CCD or CMOS sensor (the eye of the camera) filtered, allowing its full potential range of vision to be used. These cameras should be able to see from about 330 – 1200 nanometers maximum potential. If one of these cameras were deployed in Bigfoot research, perhaps better success in capturing photographs and video of Bigfoot might be achieved.

Bigfoot Camera: What Lighting?It would not be enough to have a camera with a wide-open eye to see Bigfoot. We surmise that the lighting used to detect Bigfoot might also need to be adjusted. After all, the Bigfoot camera would only see within the light spectrum available to its sensor. That would suggest that lighting might need to be an IR/UV type of light – effectively illuminating the darkness above and below the visible light range. Or perhaps, choosing full spectrum lighting with bulbs in all three ranges (UV, IR, Visible) might work best.

Bigfoot Camera: Where Can I Get One?Well, as of this writing, no one is offering a “Bigfoot Camera.” However, you can search for a full spectrum camera and let the experimenting be done. Perhaps, you can make one out of an old camera.
